* Noteworthy changes in release ?.? (????-??-??) [?]
+** Bug fixes
+
+ cp --relink=auto (the default), mv, and install
+ will again fall back to a standard copy in more cases.
+ Previously copies could fail with permission errors on
+ more restricted systems like android or containers etc.
+ [bug introduced in coreutils-9.2]
+
md5sum --check again correctly prints the status of each file checked.
Previously the status for files was printed as 'OK' once any file had passed.
This also applies to cksum, sha*sum, and b2sum.
